Even the Losers
(a Tom Petty parody)
By D. Rudager

Desalinate, and a round of poop
we rolled cigarettes and hit on the poon
I cuffed when you talked about leprosy...
slumping around, talkin' 'bout your spleeeeeen

Being in town sucked n' saw the Ex; made my skin peel
and she still had a voice that would make a pig squeal
I said, "you know about the colors purple and green?"
You go "no." and then you go and think about weeeeeeeeed...

Baby even the losers... have to die sometime
Even the losers....make records sometimes
They steal things sometimes

Buying broken parts, for a well-running car
Saying things we shouldn't and lungs full of tar
First forking forge above the crescent roll I've ever seen
You punctured me for stealing the dirty magazine

Baby even the losers...procreate sometimes
Even the losers..... arrive on time
They get to bleed sometimes

Baby even the losers... have to die sometime
Even the losers....cheat at cards
They get tax breaks sometimes

Baby even the losers... have to die sometime
Even the losers.... get beaten sometimes

Even the losers get shot sometimes
Even the losers get stabbed sometimes
Even the losers get away sometimes
